They had to fight just to get it to where it is now. I don’t think anybody would purchase it just to gear up for more years of fighting.

The 2021 approval of 250 Water Street capped a comprehensive public review process. HHH obtained approvals from New York City’s Landmarks Preservation Commission and through the City's Uniform Land Use Review Procedure, which included review by Manhattan Community Board 1, the Manhattan Borough President, City Planning Commission, and City Council. The project broke ground in 2022 and completed environmental remediation last year.
